This Caldecott-winning Australian author/illustrator, now living in New York, writes books with very simple storylines: a family lives in a farmhouse and moves on, a family lives in a lighthouse and moves on, but her illustrations are rich and full of details. She was influenced by the crowded pages of Richard Scarry's books, Her work and travels for Unicef and Save the Children inspired her 2020 book If You Come to Earth, reminding readers everywhere that "the world is wide and diverse and wonderful and belongs to all of us." This is Sophie Blackall.
